Few tips to get a good deal:

Book from popular van or car Rental Company:

Car rental agencies operate complex fleet management systems to arrange right vehicles at the right time. But, sometime, they may fail to keep their promise, but to retain the customer; they may offer you an upgrade at no cost. As they are large group, they will be having bigger fleet and most of the time, smaller and cheaper ones get booked on the first available opportunity. But expensive or luxury vehicles won’t in much demand.

Confirm your booking well in advance:

Based on the season and demand forecasting the Car Rental agencies know in advance, what kind of demand, that they have to fulfill, based on these parameters, they do offer cheapest rates and more perks to woo the commuters. So, book as early as possible.

Collection and return times:

Most of the rental agencies, have daily rates, on a 24hour basis, even though you return at 25th hour, they will bill you for an extra day. It goes like this you pick up a vehicle at 4 p.m. and bring it back 5 p.m. the following day, then you has to pay for 2 days. It is advisable, to return the vehicle before your 24 hour time slot, preferably, at 23 hours or so, that one hour window to avoid any unforeseen situations, traffic jams, last minute rush, etc., the value for this hour is equals to the day two billing.

If it is a non-peak time, then you may get more benefit. Renting in peak winter or after the Christmas are the best examples. It doesn’t make any sense for the Car Rental agencies to keep their vehicles ideal in Garage, they would rather let you for very cheap price.

The petty fights have escalated. The long, drawn out silences are nearly deafening now. You can be in the same bed for an entire night and never once touch each other. There is trouble in your relationship and you both know it. But how can you save it? What can you try before it is simply too late?

The fact that you are both willing to try anything at all is a good sign in my book, And there are ways to save a relationship, but it takes work.

1. Spend time remembering what drew you together in the first place. Did you fall in love with her quirky sense of humor? Did he drive you wild in his football jersey? What exactly attracted you to one another? Find something from your mutual past and use it to reconnect with your partner. Take her to a comedy and club and watch her let loose. Dig out his old jersey and ask him to wear it. Even if you have to pretend to be these people for a minute or two, go back in time to when your love was new. The feelings are still there, they have just been buried under the stress of life. Let them back out.
2. Touch for the sake of touching. When we are angry, hurt or sad, we tend to withdraw back into ourselves. We stop reaching out to our loved ones and that makes them hurt, angry and sad. Reach out and stroke your wife’s  hair. Run your fingers along your husband’s arm. Allow your hips to gently brush against one another as you pass in the hallway. Just touch each other.
3. Kissing is different from touching. With touching, it can be misconstrued as accidental. There is no way to unintentionally kiss somebody. Women: take your husband’s face in your hands, stare him right in the eyes and then kiss him, softly and slowly. You would be surprised how fast passion can melt away anger.
4. Try a change of scenery. Staring at the same four walls when you are angry with someone can make the most beautifully decorated room feel like a jail cell. Go away for the weekend, even if it is only to a local hotel. The change may allow you to relax enough to discuss what is wrong, or maybe it will suddenly seem so insignificant that you forget it completely.
5. Act like you are strangers. Have you ever noticed that we treat perfect strangers with more dignity and respect than we do our loved ones? Our manners in general public can be exquisite while at home we turn into Penny and Paulie Pig, grunting and squealing at our spouses. Doesn’t sound fair, does it? Try to be more polite while at home and see if that changes things. Ask sweetly for something and include a “please.” Say thank you for tasks completed, no matter how small. Give and receive compliments graciously. Act like you really do like this person. 
6. Learn something new as a couple. If you can stop bickering long enough, agree to try a new hobby or sport. Pick up some used golf clubs and go down to the golf course for a few rounds. Hike in the woods, bike on a trail; do something new and possibly exciting and discover a whole new side to your lover. 
7. Talk it out. You have pouted for over a week because he did not notice your new hair cut. Unless you hacked off more than six inches of hair, it might be because he did not register such a subtle change as quickly as your female friends did. Then again, maybe he did notice and didn’t really care for it. Maybe the whole point of him not saying anything is because he was afraid he would hurt your feelings. And yet, here you are, with hurt feelings. Tell him about it. He cannot read your mind, so tell  him that you cut your hair and that he did not notice. Tell him that you are mad as hell about it. Of course, after he tells you what he really thought about your hair, you might be even madder than that!
8. Write a letter. It might seem strange to write a letter to someone who is sitting across the breakfast table, but if you are not communicating any other way, it might be a safer option. List all the points that you want to make and then write. Don’t worry about how it is worded, you are not going for Wordsworth, after all. Say what you mean, and mean what you say. And always remember: do not ever put into writing today what you do not want to be reminded of tomorrow. 
9. Seek counseling. If all else fails, try a couple’s counselor. If you truly want to save your relationship, the impartial wisdom of an outside party might be just the saving grace you need. You vent to your friends, and they all agree that you have married a slovenly pig. He vents to his friends and they all agree with him that he has married a soul crushing shrew. A counselor will not take sides and may be able to steer you onto the right path of self healing. 
10. As a last resort consider a trial separation. If all else has failed, agree to spend a weekend apart with no communication of any kind. The time alone will give you time to reflect and renew. Besides, you know the old saying: absence makes the heart grow fonder.

Eye of the Storm is the most recent battleground to appear in World of Warcraft. Introduced with The Burning Crusade expansion, this ostensibly seems like a fairly straightforward game of controlling key areas of a map. In practice things are a little trickier. This is because lots of players still seem confused about the basic strategy of the game. Which is why we’ve compiled a guide to help your side win and make sure that you don’t look like a total noob.

The basic premise is surprisingly similar to the venerable Arathi Basin battleground – capture and hold positions in order to amass 2,000 points to win. There are a few subtle and not so subtle differences here though. For starters, both teams earn points for every second that they hold at least one tower (the more towers, the more points). This means that huge shifts in the score line are possible in just a few seconds. Most confusingly though, there is a flag in the centre of the map which can be picked up and taken to a tower under your control to earn extra points.

The reason this flag is confusing is because many players run straight for the flag in the belief that they are helping the war effort by getting it. While this is certainly true in the later part of the game, it isn’t true at the beginning. In fact, the lack of manpower where it is needed most (the towers) means that running straight to the flag can often cost your side the game.

A better starting strategy is to split the teams up so two or three players go for the two towers on your side of the map, while a larger contingent attempts to capture an opposing tower. As long as your team can then respond to your opponents’ movement quickly enough, you should find that you have a quick win on hands. Of course, if you can manage to grab all four towers, you’ll win incredibly quickly – generally in less than a minute.

Worth grinding?

When should you dive into Eye of the Storm?

Eye of the Storm isn’t the honor shower that Alterac Valley is. You get 189 honor for a win, plus what little extra you get from killing opponents compared to the 500 or so that can be had from winning AV (in roughly the same amount of time). Hopefully you get a sense that this battleground isn’t the best place to earn your S2 gear.

Even so, Eye of the Storm is definitely still worth mastering – for three reasons. Firstly, you’ll need to be good at it in order to complete your daily battleground quest – which is always worth doing for the extra 419 honor plus cash reward for completing. Secondly, some of the items you’ll want to buy with your honor will require Eye of the Storm Marks as part of their cost – such as the stunningly-good neckpieces. Thirdly, you’ll also want those Eye of the Storm marks for the repeatable quest – For Great Honor (which requires one of each mark). There’s another reason too (yes, we know that makes four) – playing a different battleground will stave off boredom.

Towers are worth more than flags

There are two types of player in Eye of the Storm: those that assault and hold towers, and those that rush to the flag. This latter group will even argue that collecting flags is the best way of winning. They are wrong.

A normal character will take roughly a minute to take the respawned flag to a tower. Assuming you have two towers, this means that during that one minute you’ll accrue 205 points – 2pts x 60 seconds plus 85pts for handing in the flag.

Imagine instead that you have three towers with no flag, then you’ll earn 300 points over the same time – 5pts x 60. Capture a flag in that time as well, then you’ll be sitting on 400pts. Capturing the flag with one tower meanwhile is worth a measly 135pts.

Terminator Salvation, the game to the movie. I don’t know know if the game has any elements from the movie since I’ve not yet seen it. Anyway the game’s a 3rd person shooter, much like Gears of War minus Gore. Story and Levels are straightforward linear which is a bit dissapointing. Nevertheless if you like Terminator you’ll like this game. Played on:CPU: E6600 @ 3GHZ, 9×333 @ 58 °C Load MoBo: P5B Deluxe/WiFi-AP Bios Rev. 1236 RAM: 4GB A-Data Vitesta Ext.
